HARD SAUCE
 
 
Grandma Wooden used to use 150 proof Wild Turkey for her hard sauce.
Used for Mince Pie & puddings. (Purchased Hard Sauce costs $3.50 for a 6 oz. jar.).
 
½CButter>Beat with electric mixer until smooth.
1CPowdered Sugar
2TBrandy, Rum or Liqueur
 
I prefer flavored Liqueurs. You can buy airline size bottles at some liquor stores.
Store in tightly covered jar in refrigerator.
You can also press into 8 x 8 pan and cut in squares or fancy shapes to place on pie.
